What is PING? The Alert That Tells You IPO Day Is Live

PING fires the moment an IPO is confirmed for trading day. Not when it prices. Not when the S-1 is filed. When the IPO is live — meaning the opening auction is happening today. This is the alert that starts your clock.

What is Bellipo

Bellipo is the first platform built entirely around the IPO lifecycle — from S-1 filing to first trade, lockup expiration, and beyond. We deliver real-time pipeline tracking, AI-powered S-1 briefs, and proprietary demand scoring, plus precision alerts: PING fires when pricing becomes official — typically the evening before trading, occasionally the morning of, always before the open — carrying the final offer price. STRIKE fires the instant the first trade prints. Retail investors get to prepare for IPO day with the same intelligence institutions take for granted.

The Problem PING Solves

Your broker sends you a notification after an IPO prices — usually the evening before trading day. That tells you the company is going public tomorrow. But it doesn't tell you when the stock will actually start trading. PING solves the second problem.

How PING Works

On IPO day, Bellipo monitors the exchange's opening auction process. The moment the designated market maker signals that an opening is imminent, PING fires to every user tracking that IPO. PING doesn't predict timing — it confirms that today is the day.

Why Timing Matters

IPOs historically don't open at 9:30 a.m. They open when the opening auction completes — sometimes at 11 a.m., sometimes at 2 p.m. Figma opened at 1:59 p.m. ET. Without PING, you're refreshing a screen for hours hoping to catch the exact moment. With PING, you get one notification: it's happening now.

PING vs. Broker Alerts

Broker alerts tell you an IPO priced. PING tells you the IPO is trading. That's the difference between knowing a plane departed and knowing it's landing. Both are useful. Only one helps you act.
